Hi, I'm still trying to make a connection between my MILES ancestors and the GENTRY line that was in Shelby County, Alabama in 1830 and 1840. They went to Tishomingo County, Mississippi. Allen Cain GENTRY who was born about 1788 in South Carolina, died on November 10, 1842, Carrolville, Tishimingo County, MS. He married Rebecca MOTES. On the 1840 Shelby County, Alabama Census, Allen Cain and his son Drury as listed as living beside my ances Simeon MILES. By 1842 they are all in Tishomingo County, MS where in 1844 Aaron DUN/DEEN (record hard to read) sues Drury JENTRY, SIMEON MILES and Rebecca JENTRY. There is only a court record of the filing of the suit. Old Tishomingo records have been vandalized and are in great disarray so my cousin who visited the place where the records are kept could only find this record. Any help on these people would be greatly appreciated. Irma J. Roy
